		<description>David, I ah, have a unique approach to my work involving a wall and handfuls of crap. Some of it sticks. The new control centre can be easily sluiced down of bodily fluids, brain matter etc, after a strenuous evening of blogging.</description>

		<description>My god, someone has highlighted all the vowels--nothing can stop you now!

The keyboard reminds me of the pressure-pad keyboard on the Atari 400, which was clever and hygenic.  The only problem was that the keys would only respond to screaming jackhammer levels of pressure, and Atari 400 users required a full round of knuckle transplants every 30000 keypresses.  When the NHS finally ran out of spare knuckles they entreatied Atari to introduce the &#039;knucklenomic sprung-key input board&#039; (later shortened to &#039;keyboard&#039;).  Thus the Atari 800 was born.  And that&#039;s a bit of computing history for you right there.</description>
